John Sheppard Studio

Drawing inspiration from the intersection of the natural world and the urban environment, John Sheppard has built a multidisciplinary design practice encompassing lighting, furniture, sculpture, and interiors. His work explores the tension between geometric precision and handmade imperfection, and the balance between sculpture and function. John spent more than 15 years as an art director in the magazine industry, working for a number of publications. After several years of ceramics classes, learning which rules to follow and which to break, he established the studio in 2016 with a focus on handmade ceramics for the home.
